Maybe it was foolish to leave Ana alone. Just three months later, two boys were attacked by a mountain lion onrepparttar hill just behindrepparttar 148384 town of Anaconda. The fourteen-year-old fired his gun to scare it off. Both boys were probably larger than my gunless wife. Fortunately, we didn't meet any cougars or bears on this hike, but Ana had other things to worry about.

Camping With Aliens In Montana

"I hear voices," she told me inrepparttar 148385 tent that night. I assured her there was nobody within ten miles of us, and then she was worried about aliens landing inrepparttar 148386 meadow. Well, it would make a good landing site. The wind threatened to shredrepparttar 148387 tent all night, sounding likerepparttar 148388 whispers or screams of ghosts - or aliens. By morningrepparttar 148389 wind relented, but it was well below freezing - time to get Ana home.

Despiterepparttar 148390 cold she hates so much, Ana couldn't help stopping to take inrepparttar 148391 view as we crossedrepparttar 148392 high meadows on our way home. Mountains, grey with rock, green with grass and flowers, and painted with white patches of snow, were everywhere. Lakes sat in valleys below, unvisited for weeks at a time. We'll be back there again, but perhaps with bear spray and alien repellant.

Notes:

Forty-five miles ofrepparttar 148393 Continental Divide Trail pass throughrepparttar 148394 Anaconda-Pintler Wilderness. Other trails inrepparttar 148395 area are never heavily used.
